Andres Marin

Andres Marin is a competitive ice climber who was born on 22 April 1983 in Ibagué, Colombia, and later moved to the United States. His Wikipedia biography says he graduated from the Champagnat High School and that it was in the United States that he found his passion for climbing in all types of terrain. He has represented the United States in the Ice Climbing World Cup, a circuit that takes place in Europe, which means he travels overseas to compete on frozen routes. Alongside his competition career he is pursuing a guide certification with the American Mountain Guides Association, the professional route for people who lead climbers in the mountains. The source gives only a short account of his career, so this entry states his birth, his move, his World Cup appearances for the United States and his guide training, and nothing further.
